How the Schools differ

     In the movie Freedom writers, Woodrow Wilson was a high school in Long beach California where the objective was for kids to become integrated with each other. Instead the kids formed gangs and fought in class. Teachers did not seem to care what happened to these students calling them stupid and claiming that they will eventually just drop out.
     In the movie Dead poet society, Welton Academy was an all boys preparatory school that focused on structure and discipline, preparing students to move on to an Ivy league school. Teachers in this school were opposite of Woodrow Wilson, pushing the students very hard to achieve the highest of standards.
